Yoslin Amaya Hernandez, a Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipient, is hesitant to celebrate President-elect Joe Biden’s victory just yet.
She says she is uncertain whether he will live up to the promises he’s made on immigration policy.
Biden campaigned to reverse policies enacted under President Donald Trump’s administration.
Now, with only a little over a month to the inauguration, Amaya Hernandez and many of the nearly 1 million immigrants like her in Maryland, along with supporters and critics, await the new administration to see whether substantial policy changes will be delivered.
